Hi everybody, just wondering if anybody has some advice. I've been lucky enough to get a couple offers in tax departments from the accounting firms in the milkrounds, which I'm delighted with.

The notable difference between the offers is one firm wants me to do tax and accounting exams while the other is for just the tax exams.

My query is whether doing the accounting exams is doable (I have only a couple of exemptions and will have to do majority of CAP 1s), what the likely timeline is (the two firms are giving contrasting timelines) and whether having the dual qualification is worth it in the long run.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
